That’s a great looking car seat! I can see how sturdy & effective it would be especially since it’s attached to the seat. I cringe when I see dogs hanging their precious little heads out of car windows. Enjoy all your fun & safe Summer adventures!

I am hoping to get some new restraints for my dogs. I was disappointed to learn that the ones I have aren’t rigorously tested and may not be keep them safe in a car crash. However, they do keep my dogs in place when I’m driving reducing the chances of them causing an accident.

My girls love going for rides in the Jeep! We don’t use seatbelts for them though. We have a barrier , a soft one, so they cant’ get in the front seat on long trips. I think our next Jeep we will have special hooks installed so we can use seatbelts for them.

Edie has been using a car seat since she was a puppy. She seems to feel more secure and comfortable in it. I like the fact it attaches to the seat – two straps around the back and one strap behind the headrest, and has a clip that attaches to her harness inside the seat.

So important as people do not realize that their dog could fly forward with a sudden stop or actually be decapitated if they have their head out the window. I know 2 cases personally of dogs dying in car accidents because either restraints failed or were not in place. So tragic. I like the look of that car seat. Kilo the Pug uses a harness attachment.

An informative and also lovely post about taking your dog out and about safely with you. My Yorkshire Terrier, Elsie loves going in the car but we always make sure she’s got her harness on (around her body) that is attached to the clip in dog seat belt and that she is safe and sound in the back of the car. Happy day trips out.
